Beautiful, sad, funny, grand and intimate, all in one. A moving film about Sweden in transition from one reality to another in the tumultuous period of 2019-2022, the start of a new era. Gang-related murders, explosions, the birth of a new political scene with the right-wing nationalist Sweden Democrats, with roots in white power movement, gaining increasing influence, plus the pandemic and climate change as well as war in Europe. And through it all, we live our lives, whilst big changes take place quietly. A film about a changing Sweden beyond the headlines.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
